408 a a I I THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK. FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1922. BOARD OF ESTIMATE STILL BLOCKS WORK OF SUBWAY BUILDING Move to Make Hylan Governor Seen in Policy of Holding Up Contracts. It developed today that while the Board of Estimate has at last got 011 "speaking terms" with the McAneny Transit Commission by recognizing it as the de facto successor of the Transit Construction Commission, the situation in regard to the completion of dual subway system in the near future has not improved.

In other words, there has been on the part of Mayor Hylan and his associates the city government no weakening their determination to prevent in the Transit Commission from getting the credit for completing and opening to the public the unfinished portions of rapid transit lines. There was so much public criticism of the "hold up" of subway construetion work, apparently for no other purof it, that Board of Estimate was pose than make political capital out compelled to do something about the hour a DEATHS KITTELL--On Tuesday, Feb. 23, MARTIN M.

Extension of Rapid Transit system in Queens Boro. Requisitions for additional appropriations under contracts 3 and 4 dual subway system. Long pending. Construction of bridge over Flushing River for Flushing extension. Submitted Aug.

16, 1921. Union station passageway and connection between Broadway and 14th st. Test borings for 14th st. line in Brooklyn, route 68. Submitted June 2, 1921.

Test borings on Queens extension route 67. Submitted June 30, 1921. Seven contracts covering supply of materials necessary for track installation on 14th st. Eastern District line. 30 contracts and requisitions, submitted by the Transit Commission, that had figured on the calendar of the board for many months without any sort of action being taken in regard to these important items.

On the ground that material and labor were cheaper now than at the time the contracts were awarded and the requisitions made. the board lately referred 17 out of the 30 back to the commission. denied two, filed two, referred one to the Boro President of another to the Boro President of Queens and approved six. To Return in Oviginal Form. to ferred Practically back to all the of the Commissioner.

contracts re- it was learned. will be returned to the Board of Estimate in their criginal form as to cost and specifications. After going over them very carefully the Commissioner's engineers have come to the conclusion. it is said, that lower estimates would not be warranted. That the Board of Estimate will send the contracts back to the Commission again if they do not show a reduction can be taken for granted.

And the Commission will return them once more to the Board of Estimate. It is understood this is exactly what the City Administration wants to happen. Thus the time will pass until next fall when Mr. Hylan's ardent supporters expect him to be nominated and elected Governor on the home rule issue and become the dictator of a Democratic Legislature that will make short work of the Miller Transit Commission. Among the items held up is one contract for the completion of the Brooklyn stations on the 14th st.Eastern Parkway District subway and seven contracts covering supply of tion work on this line could materials necessary for traction installasoon be made ready for operation as far as Mayor Hylan's own Bushwick sections if these contracts were promptly approved by the Board of Es- timate.

Approved Contracts Insignificant. With two exceptions, the contracts approved by the Board are comparatively insignificant. One is for the construction of inspection shed closure of the Livonia ave. line and at $180.009, and the other a contract for lengthening the Canal st. station platform of the Centre st.

line. The matter referred to Boro President Connolly concerns the extension of the rapid transit system in the 4th Ward of Queens, and the contract referred to Boro President Riegelmann is for the construction of a stairway in the Isle of Safety at the Boro Hall station of the Interboro. McCORMICK DIES IN CHAIR, REFUSING TO SEE MOTHER Ossining, March 3 Obstinately refusing until the last to see his mother, who had vainly tried to obtain a reprieve to save his life, George McCormick, the young Manhattan slayer, was executed late last night in the Sing Sing electric chair. He died saying his prayers. "I care for nothing or nobody," McCormick is quoted as saying when an attendant asked him if there was anything he desired or if he wished any message delivered to his relatives.

TO FREE SIX HELD IN TAYLOR MURDER Unless More Evidence Against Them Is Discovered. Los Angeles, March 3- Unless additional evidence against them is obtained, the six men arrested here Tuesday on information purporting to connect them with the murder of William Desmond Taylor, film director, will be released today, according to the police. Their release, it was said, would mean the police had abandoned plans to arrest a seventh man--a motion picture actor--a possibility they announced after a long questioning of Mrs. John Rupp, housekeeper for the men now incustody, who apprised the detectives of her belief they were involved in the Taylor murder. If the six men are eliminated from suspicion, the police said, they again will have before them only the problem of trying to locate Edward F.

Sands, missing former butler-secretary to Taylor. AUDUBON GETS $200,000 T. Gilbert Pearson of the National Association of Audubon Societies announced today the receipt of an anonymous gift of $200,000 to the organization to carry on its work in game restriction legislation, etc. HARDING, PERSHING DISCUSS ARMY CUT General Opposes Reduction to 115,000 Enlisted Men. Washington, March 3-Action of the House Appropriations subcommittee in deciding tentatively to cut the strength of the Army to 115,000 men and 11,000 officers was understood to have been discussed at a conference today between President Harding and General Pershing.

General Pershing would not discuss his talk with the President. General Pershing is known to be particularly concerned ns to the effect the Army reduction might have on plans of the War Department for training of the National Guard and the preparation of the organized reserve as component parts of the new Army of the United States. There are indications that Gen. Pershing has felt that it would be threatening to the success of threepart Army scheme to reduce the Army below its present 150.000 enlisted strength until at least the new organization had been put in working shape. It appeared possible that it was this phase of the situation which he desired to call to the attention of President Harding as Commander-in-Chief when he sought the interview today.

Says Dr. Brady Indorses Flappers and Scandalers; New Broadside of Letters And now Dr. William Brady, The Eagle's health expert, is drawn into the flapper finale hopper, scandaler and cake eater controversy. He claimed to be on the side of the flappers and scandalers by a Brooklyn mother. As usual, the mails today brought a large number of letters from those interested in the subject.

Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: As a mother of two daughters, I should like to reply to the Brooklyn Lancers. Their description of what is termed the "female scandal hopper" I think is wonderful. What could be more sensible than flat heeled shoes and loose clothing? Has not Dr. Brady always advised just such an outfit for every real girl? And most of the girls who wear this costume go in for swimming, hockey, tennis and basket ball. It is among such girls as these and their boy comrades that we shall find the leaders of the coming generation, and among such as the Brooklyn Dancers.

H. L. B. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: I have been reading the letters written by the cakeeaters, finale hoppers, scandalers and flappers, and wish to express my opinion of the whole works. To my way of thinking they are all a bunch of four-flushing upstarts, trying to "put on the swell" with nothing to back them April their national holiday.

They think the World War was a fake and that Belgium laid down to Germany for a share of the fight pictures. A regu lar fellow is as sup-rior to then as heaven is to the Bowery. DISGUSTER CHUCK. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: To say that it is provoking to read such matter in your paper a the outburst "Brooklyn Dancers' would be putting it mildly. The dress they were trying to describe is collegiate in every sense of the word.

What is more pleasant to the eye than a neatly and trimly clad person of either sex? I dare say the type of young lady to whom this mode of dress appeals is rarely found lingering in or around dance halls. No doubt the type of young woman whom the Brooklyn Dancers prefer is she who wears sheer silk stockings, French heels, lace dresses for all occasions, near-fur coats and the Ike. I need not make any effort to go nto detal concernng the type of young lady they saw fit to crtese, for I knethat your readers of a class that has some respect are. the grls who "dress for comfort and not for speed." S. H.

G. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: How sorry I feel for the girl who is weak-kneed enough to wear on cold wintry days sheer silk stockings, high French heeled shoes and a short silk frock for business and then claims she is not cold. The same applies to the "men" they go out with. Whoever heard of a "man" (and they call themselves such) wearing for street wear dance shoes, cuffless trousers, a tuxedo cut vest to the street suit and a haltinch high stiff collar with a shoe lace taking the place of the necktie? They insult my set when they even attempt to class themselves with us in an arguI ment. ridiculed Now, we for also months have our the stvle people, dress, who but who now are tired of their former "cake-eater" friends and are trying to work their way into the "flapper" class by attempting to dress in a flapper fashion.

This estimate, prepared for the New York State Tax Commission, does not include $6,222,990 estate by Kuhn, Loeb the Arm of which Schiff was a partner, for good will and capital invested in the firm. The net taxable estate is reduced by many trust funds of varying amounts, set aside during the deceased's life for the care and help of many relatives to whom he was at all times very generous. The banker set aside $6,000,000 for his wife during his life and his two children, Mrs. Felix M. Warburg and Mortimer L.

Schiff, each get 500.000 by the will. The schedule lists $25,633,574 in stocks and bonds including $6,395,970 in Victory and Liberty bonds. On the list are also items of 400 shares of the Bond and Mortgaging Guaranty Company, and 4,024 shares of Intertype stock. He also held Brooklyn Union Elevated bonds valued at $75,000 and 85.000 B. R.

T. certificates valued at $30,780. Corporate City issues of bonds totaling over $9,000,000, are on the list.

CASTORIA IA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years Always bears the Signature of DEMOCRATS TO WAGE SPECIAL FIGHT ON LODGE'S RE-ELECTION Cox to Stump Massachusetts Against Senator -Hot Campaign Planned in Ohio. FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. (Copyright by The Brooklyn Eagle and Philadelphia Washington, Public Ledger; 1922.) a March 3-Washington during the last 24 hours has been tire scene of the most formidable gathering of Democratic clansmen since the clan took to the cyclone-cellar in November, 1920.

They emerged from cover headed by James M. Cox of Ohio, chief victim of the tornado, and paw-wowed bravely and hopefully in connection with the 1922 Congressional campaign. It was Mr. Cox's expectation to confer with Woodrow Wilson. The former President's physician, Dr.

Cary T. Grayson, called upon the Ohio politician to arrange a meeting which, to suit Mr. Wilson's convenience, was fixed for a date later in the month. Several concrete and important decisions were reached by the Democratic conferees. Chief among them were: 1.

The waging of a whirlwind camipaign throughout the country to regain control of the Senate and House. 2. Concentration of special effort to defeat Senator Lodge in Massachusetts re-elect Senator Pomerene in Ohio. Assignment of the maximum time of James M. Cox to the Massachusetts campaign, during which he will stump the State on behalf of Senator Lodge's Democratic opponent.

Joseph P. Tumulty, former private secretary of Woodrow Wilson and popularly regarded as the latter's present hour political representative, drummed the Democratic brethren together in honor of Mr. Cox. In conversation with newspaper men before leaving tonight for South Carolina, Mr. Cox radiated in fullest bloom the optimism now springing eternal in all Democratic breasts.

He is particularly sanguine with regard to the Senatorial situation in Ohio. It is an open secret even in the Democratic high command, that the prospect of a Pomerene triumph in Ohio this year conjures up disquieting prospects for James M. Cox. If the wins his compaign is to be launched and fought out right 011 the alleged failures and efficiencies of Harding Administration, his friends declare he become the logical candidate the Democratic Presidential nomination in 1923. Second only to the ammunition they plan to expend in Ohio, Democratic leaders plot a broadside attack on Senator Lodge in Massachusetts.

Mr. Cox announced he would petition the Democratic National Committee to assign the bulk of his speaking time in. the Congressional campaign to Massachusetts in order that he might assail the Republican chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs on international issues. The Woman Voter "Prohibition has been beneficial in the tenement district, especially for the children," said Mrs. Florence C.

Wilkinson, speaking before the Woman's Division of the 1st A. D. Republican Club at 127 Remsen last night. She said that child labor in these districts had decreased under prohibition. Dr.

Eliza M. Mosher, who spoke on the "Health of Criminal Women," said that alcoholism was second in frequency in the list of diseases found among women prisoners. Miss Amy Wren and Mrs. Rose Maffeo also spoke. The club indorsed the Permissive Jury Bill, permitting women to serve on juries in New York State.

Mrs. Mabel T. Falco presided. The Permissive Women's Jury bill has been introduced in the Legislature by Assemblyman Sol Ullman of New York County at the request of the Women's Bar Association of Kings County. A hearing will be held on this and other women's bills on Tuesday afternoon before the Judiciary Committee, of which Mr.

Ullman is a member. Mrs. Laura M. Mayer, recently recognized by the court as Republican of the 6th A. was initiated last night into the Auxiliary of Hami'ton Post.

G. A. R. Mrs. Mayer had a grandfather and five uncles in the Civil War.

SUITES FOR HONEYMOONERS. San Francisco, March 3-So many couples are making honeymoon trips to the Far East from San Francisco that the Toyo Kisel Kaisha, a Japanese steamship firm, has ordered installation of 12 bridal suites on each of its six steamships plying out of this port.

JOS. DUNNE, UNDERTAKER. 9TH STREET. Formerly of 308 Ave. PHONE SOUTH person? Of course, not.

They never did and never will. These girls never go to "Frat" dances or indulge in any of our social functions; they merely dress in "flapper" fashion. Now. ask you, is it fair to make us suffer for them? We are refined and all sport-type girls and dress accordingly. The men we go with dress sensibly and conservatively-they must, because they need too much money at school to be able to wear "semi-evening" clothes for street wear as our "cake-eater" friends do.

With every good wish to the "Flappers." A FINISHING SCHOOL STUDENT. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Although I am a student, I am against the finale hoppers. It is very disgusting to see the way they dress; with rings in their ears, they look like cannibals and with their unbuckled galoshes one would think they for were the going to cross a mountain. cake-eaters, they are not cheap skates. as some disgusted finale hoppers claim.

All of the finale hoppers are clucks. CAKE- EATER TRIO. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: In The Eagle a letter from one obnoxious cake says a cake is not a cheap skate; and yet the writer says one (meaning a hopper) is crazy any to pay $3 for a dance. It is evident that he has never had the honor to attend a decent dance with a decent girl, to wit, a hopper. No decent girl would condescend to attend such a dance with such a young cheap skate.

suppose he is the kind of a youth (much to the disgrace and sorrow of the present day youths) who his girl a soda because it is 10 cents cheaper than a French frappe. A LOYAL HOPPER. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Does a so-named flapper frequent common dance halls? No. Does a flapper go around unescorted by a gentleman? No. Does a flapper carry on in a noisy fashion so as to attract attention? No.

Now, on the other hand, take the "cake-eater." In the subway, who makes all the noise? The cake-eater. Who laughs boisterously? The cake-eater. Who around unescorted? The -eater. Who goes to a 50-cent dance and meets the "male friends" there? The cake-eater. We, the flappers, were ridiculed for our dress last spring--and who is now mimicking our style of dress? These very people who laughed at us then.

Now, if a girl goes to Frat dances and goes with boys who attend college, her style of dress is immediately copied by these "would-be" flap. pers who are crushing our good reputation and killing any one who goes with "collegiate" men. Always strong for the flappers. A STUDENT. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: In answer to "Cake-Eater," who asks, "Why pay $3 for a dance when you can pay 50 cents?" I would like to say that there is a vast difference between the surroundings of the $3 dance and those of the 50 cents.

When friend "Cake" digs down for his four bits he does SO knowing that he will dance in a hall perhaps of ill repute and his fellow most of them who use said hall for a hang-out, are not the best possible companions. On the other hand, a person paying $3 for a fraternity bid has the assurance of decent surroundings and respectable fellow scandalers. SCANDALER. G.

By S. B. CONGER. (By Cable to The Brooklyn Eagle and a Phila. Ledger; Copyright, 1922.) Berlin, March 3-Americans who have formed a company to operate 0 New York-Chicago airship line with Schuttelanz dirigibles, manufactured in Germany and shipped, knocked down, to the United States, as reported in American dispatches, will find their plans blocked by the Council of Ambassadors and the Aeronautical Commission of control.

These two bodies are determined to prevent construction in Germany now or in the future of airships capable of being for German or foreign use, and to used ed for military purposes, whether enforce the complete destruction of all German plants where large-sized dirigibles can be built. They regard any airship big enough 1c carry a cargo of bombs from the German frontiers as far as London or Paris as potentially a military airship, and have fixed the maximum size of aircraft which may be built at barely one-third of the 4,000,000 cubic feet capacity proposed for the New Yorr.Chicago flyers. The prohibition applies to the construction of parts as well as complete dirigibles. Even the American Government, with all its pull, was unable to obtain the the Council of Ambassadors to order a dirigible of this size as the replacement airship to which it was entitled under the armistice agreement, and had to content itself with a Zeppelin of 70,000 cubic meters, or about 2,000,000 cubic feet capacity, although the Zeppelin company had plans and parts for 4.000,000 cubic foot dirigible which the American representatives and the company were anxious to have completed for the United States. Your correspondent is informed by a member of the Interallied Commission of Control that this American Government Zeppelin is the last airship permitted to be built in Germany.

The Commission will ring down the curtain on German airship construction when she is delivered. REDMOND'S KINSMAN KILLED IN DUBLIN Max S. Green Hit by Bullet Fired During Thief Chase. Belfast. March 3 (By the Associated Press)--Max S.
